Do you recommend bone and charcoal for modern firearms?

It all depends on the steel. I've got some pretty good examples from new steel. If you go to http://www.gunblast.com/FiringPin.htm
you will see an example of a Winchester 94AE .44cal. that I refinished.
Also, You can go to my web-site to see more pic's of the firearm: http://danthegunman.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=31&Itemi d=35
